Fairly solid with a few flaws
on October 4, 2022
Posted by: GeneralYawningPlum
What you see is what you get. This set doesn't do anything and is purely a display piece. The building experience was alright. It was very repetitive as you have to build very similar sections twice. Attaching the side panels was also very frustrating as you had to put apply pressure to fragile parts of the build to get them to snap into place. Besides that it was overall a very solid build experience. The completed build is very nice, being way larger than I expected and being jam packed with details. My only complaint would be the few places where colors from the interior can be seen from the outside. It's annoying to see this on such a high priced set, especially when it would've been as simple as changing those parts to grey. Overall though it doesn't take too much away from the build.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Oh no! Looks like we’ve missed out on making this build as awesome as the other ones in the Ultimate Collector Series. Feedback from amazing builders like you helps us make our sets better. We’ll share your feedback with our design teams, so they know what our builders would like to see more of in our sets.

I love this set. I built it when I was 10 years old, I absolutely love this set, It is totally worth the price. Also, no interior is not a problem. This is probably the best Lego Star Wars set!

Worth it, no question.

In a word, this set is fantastic.
A well designed and executed revisit to the 2002 UCS that is sturdier, more resilient over time, and far more accurate to the movie. You can put it down to a "great gray triangle" if you really must be so callous but that ignores the level of detail and intricate technique used in its construction. It looks fabulous on display with only minor flaws.
There are a few spots where off-color pieces can be seen through small gaps in the exterior and these really should have been replaced with gray ones. However this is only noticeable if you know where to look or are putting its gaps under direct light - when displayed under normal room lighting they are lost in shadows. The price can be off-putting, especially now that it's retired. It definitely requires appropriate space. It's minifigure count is probably disappointing but I think that's a bit of a silly nitpick for what is clearly a display piece and not a playset.
I thoroughly enjoyed the build experience, a solid 25 hours spent over the course of a week. If that degree of time investment is too much, you'll likely find more enjoyment with sets that aren't as large or involved. I can't agree with reviews complaining about the set being difficult to move, flimsy, or had panels falling apart. This was my first time building a set this large and I had no such issues. The instructions are explicit on how to attach the exterior panels to the frame and how to lift the set and their recommendations work well. I've accidentally knocked against the table or sits on several times and have had no issues with instability or damage.
This really is one of the best Lego sets I've ever seen. I knew I wanted a Lego Star Destroyer and I have absolutely no regrets with my choice.

Adult Lego collector/builder here. It’s huge, no doubt about it, and requires a dedicated space for properly displaying. Did not have as much fun building this as I did with the Falcon.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
